lol this is a funny thread this doesnt mean the end of wakefield both teams may somehow end up in superleague if harloquins go bust which is actually 50-50. wakefield finished 5th last year but there new criteria this time round so mate this threads a joke and you obviously no nothing about rugby but to be honest wakefield dont deserve a licence after today if you want to watch a team who just cant be bothered watch wakefield

I am glad that this thread is a source of so much mirth for you, and I am especially happy that you agree with me that Wakefield don't deserve a license. I also know that Quins are not going belly up.

I am a wakefield fan and i was at the game today, and i hate to say it but we were not even championship standard, sean gleeson is about as good as me, latu is a great player but cleary did not want to be there and the prop forwards have no clue what is going on, apart from paul king that is. But trying to speak truthfully we deserve a licence over a lot of teams, bradford may have beaten us today but they are an awful side who are living in the past, and this 60 quid thing is a false promise, ten thousand fans by 4th of october, more chance of me shagging jennifer aniston to be quite honest with you. The RFL need to sort themselves out and realise that rugby league will not expand, the welsh dont care and the cockneys dont care. the catalans are good for the game but the rest are not, so why bother with them. When will the RFL realise that rugby league is a game for northerners and that is all it is ever going to be. something needs sorting. And can i also say, that you frenchie have no idea about rugby league and its ways so please stay out of things that you cleary know nothing about. thank you

A lot of Yorkshiremen believe that when God created the world, he made it with perfect balance.
He balanced the hot areas with the cold areas. the dry areas with the wet areas.
And, in creating Yorkshire, he created the most glorious place on earth - full of majestic beauty and sporting giants.........and for balance he created....... Lancashire.

I never realised not being beaten by Bradford was one of the creteria for Superleague membership. Does this also mean that Catalans, Harlequins, Crusaders, Salford, Hull KR and Wigan are also in danger of losing their licenses as well?

No.

But the issue I am now wondering about is whether Harlequins can afford to hire John Kear in 2011.

Do you honestly think you deserve a license ahead of Bradford? I know they're in a slump at the moment, but they still have better crowds, a bigger and better stadium, more juniors playing regularly and currently sit higher in the table than Wakefield. And at least Bradford are trying to do something to get fans back in to the stadium. All Wakefield are doing is drawing pictures.

Why bother with them? The same reason we bothered with Catalans (who you acknowledge are good for the game). RL is more than just a northern game. You've not even given Crusaders a chance before casting them aside. They've had a really good start to life at Wrexham, andthis couldget even better next year for all we know. They could be the next Catalans.

ParisS actually knows quite a lot about RL. It's a shame he/she chooses to ignore certain things in order to be an attention seeking wind-up merchant.

Although two threads started off with the different topics, they both descended into talking about exactly the same thing: the consequences of the end of season. Wakefield especially were getting lots of consideration from both threads so they were merged.

Arguing with the forum trolls is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the bird will **** on the board and strut around like it won anyway
